NIP-05 Mapping Nostr keys to DNS-based internet identifiers describes a requirement to be able to handle GET requests to a .json file. For obvious security reason I want to return a json only if requested name exists; otherwise return an error.
Let's say I have a nostr.json file that looks like this
{
"names": {
"user_name_1": "user_pubkey_1",
"user_name_2": "user_pubkey_2"
},
"relays": {
"user_pubkey_1": [ "wss://relay1", "wss://relay2" ],
"user_pubkey_2": [ "wss://relay3", "wss://relay4" ]
}
}
Request from a Nostr relay is: https://example.com/.well-known/nostr.json?name=user_name_1 and what I want is to return the appropriate response
{
"names": {
"user_name_1":"user_pubkey_1"
},
"relays": {
"user_pubkey_1":[ "wss://relay1", "wss://relay2" ]
}
}
only in case the name exists; otherwise return
{
"error":"user not found"
}
or in case of a wrong GET parameter return
{
"error":"Missing name parameter"
}
What is the best way to do it?
Edit: Found a working example
A way around is to RewriteRule
to point to some secret_name.php
file.
